I Think My Head Almost Exploded

This may be the greatest two minutes in the history of rock and roll. It's simply the greatest band of the last forty years covering one of the best rock and roll songs of all time. The Pixies covering Jesus & Mary Chains' Head On? I really don't know what to say. Words honestly escape me. This, in my opinion, is as good as modern music can get.

And just for fun, here's the greatest rock and roll band of the last forty years doing a live version of Bone Machine. Which for some reason I find myself quoting a lot at work recently. "You're so pretty when you're unfaithful to me."

This blog is no more. It has ceased to be. It's expired and gone to meet its maker. It's a stiff. Bereft of life. It rests in peace. Its metabolic processes are now history. It's kicked the bucket. It's shuffled off this mortal coil, run down the curtain, and joined the bleedin' choir eternal. This is an ex-blog.

Welcome To TGOG

The goal of this blog is to tell the story of the history of 19th century St. Louis baseball and to serve as a resource for 19th century baseball researchers. It is, essentially, an online research journal. If you have any comments, criticisms or suggestions, feel free to contact me at thisgameofgames@gmail.com.

The research is, as always, ongoing.

"Baseball is the very symbol, the outward and visible expression of the drive and push and rush and struggle of the raging, tearing, booming nineteenth century." Mark Twain, 1889.
